Pre-University Paper from the year 2021 in the subject Sociology - Individual, Groups, Society, grade: 1,7, , language: English, abstract: This term paper deals with the topic of hooligans in English football. The central research question to be answered in this thesis is whether hooliganism is exclusively an English phenomenon. For this purpose, this thesis gives an overview of the development of hooliganism. This is quite topical as the hooligan scene is currently shifting from football stadiums to other locations. This shift is particularly pronounced in England, which is why I have chosen the following research question: Hooligans in English football - only an English phenomenon? In order to answer the research question, I first clarify the question of what hooligans are, and explain the most important terms and concepts. Afterwards I go into the development of hooliganism. Afterwards the intention behind violent vandalism. After I list the two worst catastrophes in the era of hooliganism, I explain the measures taken by the government and their effects. Building on the results already obtained, I clarify the question of whether hooliganism is only an English phenomenon by comparing England and Germany.
